This recycling centre, or tip as it's more commonly known, is a fantastic resource sitting over in…read moreSt Phillips. It's a little tricky to find but is well worth seeking out. It's obviously very important to recycle but what of the odd bits and bobs that the door collectors won't take for whatever reason? Well, this place takes EVERYTHING. As well as the obvious things like paper, glass and metal, you can also clear out the stuff that's always left in the bottom of your box, like plastic and cardboard. Going beyond that, they also, off the top of my head, take batteries, clothes, electrical appliances. There's even a special section for TVs and a gardening area where you can dump all the overgrown waste from your garden. A great way to unclutter your house and help the envorinment, all in one. NOTE: IT SHUTS AT 4.15PM IN WINTER, 6.45PM IN SUMMER.

Helping Bristol with its greener-than-thou eco points is the amazing tip, sorry, yes, recycling…read morecentre. So organised and staffed by what most be the most tolerant very large men in the city, you drive through and can throw all sorts of stuff over the precipice into their correct sections. If you want to get rid of it, chances are that they have a section for it. If in doubt, just ask any of the men and they will help rather than blindly going for the 'general' section. It does get very busy on bank holiday weekends and sunny Sundays but even with a queue out to Barrow Road you won't have to wait too long because of said organisation. In one way and out the other, easy as pie.

Full House is a registered charity that takes in unwanted furniture, gardening & household items,…read morerepairs them if they need it, and sells them at an extremely low price to people with low incomes / who are in receipt of benefits, or for anyone whose circumstances have become dire such as hospitalization, redundancy etc. To claim the much-reduced rates you will be required to show proof of your circumstances, ie: benefit book. However, the warehouse is open to to anyone at all. If you are looking for a bargain item of furniture to fill a spare corner in your house or to help out a flat-mate etc, then this is the place to come. Not only will you be getting a superb bargain, you will also be doing your bit for the environment, as the existence of this service reduces land-fill. If you wish to donate a large piece of furniture or white goods, then all you need do is call and they will collect. An excellent re-cycling outlet that benefits everyone!

I'm a hoarder but I also like a good purge. The place to chuck clutter if you're really serious is…read moreof course the local tip. Bessemer road is my local so to speak and is also one, if not the, newest refuse recycling centres in Cardiff. As such it recycles pretty much everything, bar asbestos and a few other hazardous materials. You can recycle rubble, plasterboard, metal, card, plastic, bikes, electrics, car batteries, tins of paints, clothes, general waste and more. Most of the guys here will help you unload your stuff. Keep your eyes peeled. One time I visited Bessemer close I was lucky enough to see an urban fox (see photo). He just sat and watched us - what an amazing experience!

For anyone who doesn't know what it is (skip this paragraph if you do), Freecycle is a brilliant…read moreinternet network, not a place (so ignore the map location and get on the website). The basic idea is to keep good stuff out of landfill: so anyone who has stuff to give away can advertise it, anyone who needs stuff can reply or post their wants. The only rule is it should be totally free. Personally I've been involved in movements of food, plants, a mattress, a spin dryer, furniture etc etc I've included more details of how it works and how to sign up on my review of Hackney Freecycle (http://www.qype.co.uk/place/87119-Hackney-Freecycle-London) , so I won't repeat that. Very busy Freecycle group covering Swindon and surrounding villages. Judging by the speed adverts go up I think it may be unmoderated either that or the moderators are very dedicated and on hand all the time! It gets the usual glorious mix of stuff. Right now as I write there's a camera, Hancock's Half Hour tapes and a 'grabbing machine'. The latter being one of those fairground machines that grabs things when you put money in Personally I haven't moved stuff on here as yet, but I'm keeping an eye out for a bike!

Freecycle is a non profit organisation that aims to save stuff from landfill…read more The idea is that you let other people have stuff that you would otherwise send to landfill and you can get stuff from other people that they no longer require. You advertise stuff online on a forum and then people reply to you by email if they would like it and then you choose who to give it to and make arrangements for them to collect it. We have got rid of some furniture this way that has helped someone else who needed it and saved us from having to pay the council to come and take it away. You will see all sorts on there, for example baby clothes that are now too small for the other persons baby or used jiffy bags that one person would just throw away, but another person could use to send stuff in the post. It is certainly a good way to help the environment.
